Dear friends and other interesting creatures,
I have always admired the people who brings up sensitive topics (sex, religion, race etc. ) and use their influence to bring about change.
…. Then I met Bambi Kellerman, the younger sister of the first or second most famous woman in South Africa – give or take if you favour Winnie or Evita! All topics are fair game. My type of woman!
I was thrilled to be invited to the press conference to meet with Bambi and take a selfie with her. Funny. Confident. Tackling the issues in our country and parenting our youth head on. Pun intended.
As a huge surprise Godfrey Johnson joined Bambi on piano and song on stage. Another gifted, talented performer. I admit I could listen to him sing and play the piano just like the sound of a lonely saxophone. I think deep down our Godfrey is a deep man… as I have found most creatures in the arts to be.
Bambi is as delightful in character in #50ShadesOfBambi as in her book ‘Never too naked’. I would urge you to escape into her world and enjoy the read. It is funny, sexy, to the point and oh so Bambi! Terrific escapism.
After the show, I was privileged to chat and pose for some pictures with Pieter Dirk Uys, the creator of both Evita Bezuidenhout and Bambi Kellerman.
He is a humble, lovable man with a gift for shining the spotlight on that corner we may have missed. I was deeply touched by our chat on children and how parents should talk to their children about reality… or the drug lord will as Bambi puts it.
#50ShadesofBambi is on at the Old Mutual Theatre On The Square until March 16th. Hurry!
I wish you enough,
Wenchy
